Title: Şehîd Şevger Ara Makno Author: Tekoşîna Anarşîst Date: March 4, 2019 Language: en Topics: Tekoşîna Anarşîst, obituary, Rojava Source: Retrieved on 2020-04-13 from https://twitter.com/TA_Anarsist/status/1104737729089282048
It is March 4^(th), the day we will always remember. It has been one
year since our friend, comrade, heval, brother, son, and lover Sevger
Ara Makno fell Şehîd. Together with two heval from YPG, he took a
position on a hill near Berbêne village in an attempt to fight against
the Turkish army and its jihadi proxies, and to defend Afrin canton from
fascist invasion. Around 8AM, all three of them were hit by an
air-strike and lost their lives.
Şevger Ara Makno joined Tekoşîna Anarşist when he arrived in Rojava on
January 20^(th), 2018, and from the beginning, he was very eager to join
the people’s self-defense struggle against the imperialist Turkish state
and the jihadis that it supports (Daesh, Al Nusra, etc). After
constantly showing strong will during military training, Şevger Ara was
sent to Afrin as a part of Antifascist Forces of Afrin (AFFA). He had a
strong spirit, a big and warm heart, an unforgettable sense of humor, a
wide smile, and he always kept the morale of his friends and comrades
very high. Here is an excerpt from a letter he wrote to friends before
leaving for the front:
..The will-power of the fighters in Efrin is a huge morale and
motivation for the people of Rojava, increasing their faith to the
revolution, to the movement. These are those days, one of those few
times where we can find ourselves in the spirit of the fight, sharing
the feeling of comradeship and barricadeships... maybe our group’s
presence in Efrin will not make a huge difference or will make, is not
sure...but it is sure that the resistance in the fronts will make huge
difference on us, for us and for our future.
actually dears what i want to say is: heeeeeeey,alooo what are you
waiting for, jump on the truck and come here, we have a fight to win...
hope to meet in the fronts dears, sooner or later
comradely greetings
hugs
Şehid Şevger Ara Makno lost his life, and some weeks after that the
Turkish army occupied Afrin city. But his spirit stayed with us and
always will. To this day, people in Afrin continue fighting in many
different ways. In memory of Şehîd Şevger Ara and of all revolutionaries
who lost their lives on the way to better tomorrows, we will do our best
to keep up the struggle.
We mourn the loss of our dear friend, and we send our condolensces to
his extended family and to everyone who had the fortune of meeting this
magical being. Şehîd Şevger Ara Makno will not be forgotten. His spirit
lives in our hearts, in our souls, and in our fight for equality and
freedom.
If your heart is free, the ground you stand on is liberated territory.
Defend it!
Şehîd namirin!
Anarchist greetings
